Robert Lyrics

Artist: Dolly Parton
Album: The Fairest Of Them All

Robert's appearance is something to beholdDressed in the finest of store bought clothesMy mamma sews my clothes cause I'm just a poor girlBut Robert is as real as his daddies goldRobert could have any girl that he wantedBut his feelings for me each day seems to growHe don't know the reason, that he's so drawn to meBut there is a story that Robert doesn't knowOh RobertOh Robert

Robert is constantly making eyes at meHe misunderstands the feelings we shareThere's no way that I can return his glancesBut I know the meaning of the feeling that's there

Robert if you knew, there once was a rich boyIn love with a poor girl, long time agoBut the folks of that rich boy, would not let them marryAnd I am a symbol of the love that they stole

Oh RobertOh Robert

Robert, oh Robert if you only knewThe same blood is flowing in both me and youThat rich boy's your father,but he's also mineAnd my mamma's the poor girl that he left behind
